TO  THE  PUBLIC. 


mSEKl'L  iiifoniiatioii   for  those  interested  in   the  erection  of  bnihlings,  artistic  as  well  as  durable.     Much  money  has  been  spent  on 
large  buildings,  without  considering  progressive  ideas  of  construction,  or  pleasing  effects  in  Architecture.    One  of  the  greatest 
points  to  be  considered  is  the  scientific,  as  well  as  the  practical  manipulation  of  all  raw  material  entering  into  these  structures. 
Long  experience  has    taught  me  that   nothing  is   too   good  in   the   wa\-  of  material,    and    I   spare   no  time    ur  expense  to  secure  the 
best   results    obtainable    in  preparing  the  plans  and  specifications,  and  superintending  the   construction.     You  may  have  an  elegant  set 
of   plans,  and  if  the  builder  does  not  follow  them,  the  owner  is  the  lostr,  and  the  architect  has  to  shoulder  the  blame.     So  many  of  our 
profession   understand  the  theory  liut  are  unal)le  to  put  the  same  into  practical  execution. 

On  the  following  pages  of  this  Ijrochure  will   be    found   a   few    suggestions  to    the    public,  also    cuts  of  a    few    buildings    executed 
in  my  office. 

The  advertisements   that  appear   in   this  book   represent  the   very  best  firms  in    their  respective   lines  and   solicit  first   class  work. 
Parties  who  desire  goo  1  work  and  low  prices  will  do  well  to  correspond  with  them. 

Yours  respectfully,

READ   THIS. 


Heavy  excavations  should  uot  be  made  during  July  and  August  in  our  southern  climate. 

Lay  foundations  with  cement-mortar.     In  freezing  weather  keep  the  brick  dry,  in  hot  weather  wet  them. 

All  floors  should  be  double.  The  rough  floor  in  frame  buildings  should  extend  to  siding  and  will  make  a  very  good  fire 
stop,  as  this  will  catch  falling  mortar  from  the  plastering. 

Make  wide  verandas,  and  avoid  using  sap  flooring. 

Avoid  openings  to  attic  or  resting  places  for  birds  at  the  cornice  line. 

Do  not  lay  wood  shingles  in  lead  paint,  it  rots  them. 

Use  only  dry  lumber  for  finish,  and  avoid  using  green  lumber  in  the  frame. 

Attics  should  be  well  ventilated  to  carry  out  the  heated  air  between  ceiling  and  roof. 

Chimneys  should  be  built  from  the  ground.  Make  walls  of  flues  not  less  than  8  inches  thick  ;  flues  for  stove,  8  inches 
square;  flue  for  fire-place  not  less  than  8x12  inches. 

Two-thirds  of  the  fires  are  caused  by  defective  flues  and  4-inch  walls.     Chimney  tops  should  be  laid  in  cement-mortar. 

Hearths  for  fire-places  should  be  laid  in  cement-mortar  in  order  to  prevent  rats  and  mice  from  undermining  them. 

Avoid  carpet  strips  between  connecting  doors.     They  are  troublesome  to  the  housekeeper. 

See  that  your  gas  or  electric  outlets  are  located  to  be  convenient,  and  in  the  places  most  needed. 

See  that  proper  spaces  are  provided  for  beds,  bureaus,  bufSets,  etc. 

Doors  should  not  open  into  closets  or  hallways. 

Doors  to  buildings  where  large  gatherings  are  held  should  open  outside. 

Locate  dining-room  according  to  prevailing  breeze  in  summer. 

Closets,  moth-proof,  can  be  had  by  using  cedar  ceiling. 

Provide  picture  moulding.     This  saves  the  damage  to  plastering. 

Staircases  should  be  wide,  well  lighted,  and  have  wide  step  with  easy  rise;  62  in.  is  good  height. 

Avoid  winding  stairways,  especially  in  public  buildings. 

When  you  have  decided  to  build  consult  a  first-class  architect,  who  should  be  a  master  builder. 

The  charges  of  all  reputable  architects  are  the  same.  It  is  poor  economy  to  employ  a  man  who  does  not  know  his 
business,  at  any  price.

Hl'liATl'R]';  of  improvciiicnts  in  the  Smitli  is  llic  many  new  municipal  IniiMinKS  that  liave  been  erected,  are  under  contract,  or  in 
contemplation,  fonsideralile  attention  is  ),Mvi'n  to  tiic  introduction  of  ]]roj,'ressive  ideas  in  these  structures,  and  as  a  result  there 
is  to  lie  seen  many  pleasiuj;  examples  of  architecture  in  tliis  ilirection.  Herewith  is  illustiated  the  new  Tem])le  of  Justice  for 
Meckleiibur;;  County,  North  Carolina.  It  is  one  of  the  best  in  llie  State.  It  occupies  the  site  of  (jueeii  .\nne's  Museum,  built  in 
1776,  on  Tryon  Street.  The  building;  is  of  fire  proof  construction,  75x120  feet,  with  granite  foundations  and  a])proaclies.  H\iff  brick  and 
buff  stone  facade,  marble  floors,  and  hardwood  finish  add  to  the  beauty  of  the  buildin;.;.  It  is  regarded  as  a  remarkable  buililiuK  for  the 
cost,  f5o,o<x),  and  much  credit  is  given  the  County  Comnnssioners  for  the  wisdom  of  their  choice.  The  .\rchitect,  I'rank  I'.  Milburn,  of 
Charlotte.  N.  C,  was  selecte<l,  after  plans  prepared  by  twenty-seven  prominent  architects  from  all  parts  of  the  I'nitsd  States  had  been 
exanniied.  The  principal  entrance  is  (|uite  imposing,  with  open  portico  above,  surmounted  by  a  large  dome  of  pleasing  proportions. —

At  a  meeting  of  our  Huilding  Committee  to  day.  whicli  perhaps  will  be  the  last  held,  it  was  unanimously  agreed  that  we  shoulit

Court  House  and  Jail  for  .\nderson  Countv. 

The  Court  House  is  given  up  to  be  the  handsomest  County  building   in   the   State,  and   our  people  all  laud   their   praises  of  both   the 
Jail  and  Court  House. 

There  has  not  been  a  hitch  l)etween  the  Huilding  Committee  and  the  Contractors,  and  both  buildings  have  been  completed  according 
to  the  plans  and  specifications  furnished  by  you,  and  tliis  speaks  worlds  for  the  .Architect.

To  Whom  Concerned  :

the  Architect.     We  are  well  pleased  and  satisfied  with  same,  and  do  not  hesitate  to  recommend   Mr.  Milburn  to  County  officers  in   need  of 

his  services,  as  a  man  worthy  and  well  qualified  in  his  profession.

II  ii[i  to  a  certain  staiularil  in  their  professions,  an  Architect  is  allowed  to  practice  with  no  credentials  other  than  llie 
sketch  he  carries.  Yet  the  Architect  who  liuilds  vour  homes  and  jiublic  buildings  is  of  more  importance  than  your 
lawyer  or  even  your  physician;  for  they  have  each  only  their  respective  work  while  the  Architect  has  in  his  hands  the  con- 
struition.  he  niusl  see  that  the  materials  used  are  of  sullicient  strength  to  support  Ihi-  load  for  whatever  the  Imilding  was 
intended.  An  .\rchiteel  may  reudei' a  lieautiful  drawing  and  still  not  have  sullicient  knowledge  of  construction  to  us  proper 
material  and  worknnmship  to  avert  a  calamity  which  has  fre'ipiently  liapj)ened  hy  the  total  collapsing  of  large  buildings. 
Added  to  this  he  must  understand  the  projur  sanifaiy  conditions,  as  well  as  heating,  ventilation,  arrangement  and  acoustics,

Varnish  in  Architecture     SOSMAN    &    LANDIS, 


fl   WORD   FOR   THE   CliIENT. 

There  would  be  fewer  mistakes  made  in  the  workl  if  it  were 
ordained  that  only  the  maker  of  a  mistake  should  suffer  the 
consequences.  More  care  would  be  exercised,  and  a  more  perfect 
state  of  affairs  would  prevail  if  every  man  had  to  bear  the  whole 
brunt  of  his  own  errors  or  miscalculations. 

Take  the  interior  finishing  of  a  house  for  instance,  if  a  poor 
or  unsuitable  varnish  is  used  for  the  woodwork,  the  real  sufferer 
is  neither  the  Architect  who  specified  it,  the  Contractor  or  the 
Finisher,  but  the  Owner  who  has  no  practical  knowledge  of 
Varnish,  and  who  had  nothing  whatever  to  do  with  making  the 
blunder. 

It  is  largely  within  the  power  of  the  Architect  to  protect  his 
client  from  becoming  the  victim  of  a  mistake  of  this  kind  by 
carefully  specifying  the  right  Varnish. 

If  hard  Oil  Finish  is  specified  and  used,  the  result  will  be  the 
finest  finish  attainable  on  wood,  but  it  should  be  remembered  by 
both  Architect  and  Client  that  there  is  no  Hard  Oil  Finish  but 
"Berry  Brothers'  Hard  Oil  Finish",  and  sealed  cans  bearing  our 
label  should  be  insisted  upon. 

Finished  wooils  and  interesting  pamphlets  on  natural  wood 
finishing  sent  free  to  any  address  upon  application.

aQcl  Slag  IJoofir)^. 

^*^HI8  is  put  n]i  in  rolls  of  108  square  feet  each,  32  inches  wide,  and  we  claim  that  it  is  the  most  perfect  and  durable 
11  Kootiiig  on  tile  market.  They  are  composed  of  two  sheets  of  wool  felt.  These  two  layers  are  cemented  together  under 
hydraulic  pressure ;  the  surface  is  then  coated  over  with  pliable  Asphaltuni,  into  which  is  imbedded  under  pressure, 
screened  gravel  or  crushed  slag.  This  makes  a  heavy,  compact  Fire  and  Water-proof  Roofing,  which  is  fastened  to  the  sheath- 
ing board  with  nails,  same  as  other  composition  roofings.  We  furnish  with  each  roll  of  roofing  enough  Asphaltuni  to  paint 
between  lajis  of  the  Roofing.     This  completes  the  roof. 

Prepared  gravel  and  slag  rooting  have  a  two-inch  margin  on  the  edge  that  is  free  from  gravel  or  slag.  This  is  used  for 
the  lap  and  insures  a  water  tight  joint.  We  use  a  grade  of  screened  gravel  that  is  free  from  dirt,  of  a  uniform  size,  for  the 
Prepared  Gravel  Roofing;  and  on  the  Prepared  Slag  Roofing  we  use  a  crushed  slag,  free  from  dirt  and  of  uniform  size  and 
color.     This  slag  is  a  cinder  from  the  iron  furnaces,  and  owing  to  its  peculiar  shape,  covers  the  surface  of  the  rooting  perfectly.

THE  ELEIVIENTS 


Are  the  only  leg-itimate  despoilers  of  paint.  Paint  that  chalks, 
cracks,  scales,  darkens  or  discolors  from  inherent  weakness  is  not 
good  paint,  and  should  be  avoided  in  the  specifications  of  the 
careful    architect.       ,*     t*     .*     ^     .*     ,*     j*     j*     .*     ^     ^* 


Co:Mi3iisr^Tioisr  Paz^ts 


Based  on  ZINC  WHITE  have  no  inherent  defects.  The  ele- 
ments wear  them  away  in  time,  but  they  do  not  decay,  nor 
darken,  nor  changfe  color.  The  careful  architect,  who  values 
permanence  of  color  and  material,  will  specify  an  adequate 
proportion    of  ZINC  WHITE  in  all  house  paints,      ^s*     J*     -*

Compare  it  with  any  on  the  market,     fse  a    spy-glass,   or  a   scarchliglit 
or  the  X  rays,  or  any  other  severe  lest,  ami  it  will  still  come  out  aheail. 

We  can  afford  to  talk  thus  strongly,   because  we  are  sure  of  our  ]iositioii 
I'cople  who  come  to  us,  come  again.     They  report  the  utmost  satisfaction. 

We  have  a  stamling  offer  to  refund  your  money  on  any  unsalisfacloi 
material  bought  from  us,  or  to  send  other  material  if  yoti  prefer. 

That  protects  you  and  docs  no  harm,  for  we  are  rarely  asked  to  refun 
money  or  replace  goods. 

We  sell  honest  material.  It  is  honest  through  and  through,  up  and  ilo« 
and  all  around.  That  is  the  only  kiinl  you  can  afford  to  use.  You  may  ' 
always  sure  of  getting  it  lure. 

It  may  cost  a  little  more  than  the  uncertain  kind— and  it  may  not

receive  the  short  count,  thumb-soiled,  and 
botchy  product  of  the  type-smith  whose 
sole  plea  for  your  patronage  rests  in  his 
ability  to  "skin  the  other  fellow  on  figures." 
•;  Our  printing  is  up-to-date,  fair-priced, 
and  of  a  quality  not  equalled  elsewhere  in 
the  South,  and  not  excelled  anywhere  at 
any  pVice.  "  When  in  want  of  printing  a 
bit  different,  .a  great  deal  better,  and  pos- 
sibly not  higher  in  cost  than  the  best  of 
the  other  chap's  product,  drop  in  and  talk
